About 1,800 people flocked to the Show, which is the one of the biggest attendances in the event’s history.

Show secretary, Ed Hutchinson, said: “It was one of the best shows we’ve ever had. The attendance was as high as we’ve ever had it.”

For the first time ever, Bugthorpe Primary School won the cup for the school with the most points awarded at the Show. The school has been entering for at least 20 years. It also won the Peter Kite Associates prize of £50, which will be used to purchase art equipment for the school.

The Show was held at High Callis Wold Farm, near the top of Garrowby Hill.
